•The best laptops for gaming and schoolwork in 2025
Summary
Nutrition label
68% Informative
The Zephyrus G14 has been our go-to laptop recommendation for gaming performance for years .
Razer ’s flagship Blade laptops have been the closest PC analog to Apple 's MacBook Pro since their debut.
While Alienware has established itself as a solid premium brand, Dell 's cheaper G-series notebooks are worth a look.
The ROG Strix G18 is an 18-inch beast sporting Intel 's latest 14th -gen CPU and NVIDIA ’s RTX 40-series family.
The one big downside to choosing a gaming notebook is portability.
For the most part, we'd recommend 15-inch models to get the best balance of size and price.
